Smooth seeds (S) are completely dominant over wrinkled seeds (s). You cross a plant that is homozygous for smooth seeds (male) with a plant that is heterozygous for smooth seeds (female). Use a Punnett square to determine the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios for the offspring.

What are the male plant's gametes?

What are the female plant's gametes?

What is the expected genotypic ratio of the offspring?

What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring?

What is the female plant's genotype?

Heterozygous smooth seeds

The expected genotypic ratio of the offspring is 1 (Homozygous smooth seeds) : 1 (Heterozygous smooth seeds).

All the offspring’s phenotype will be with smooth seeds.

A cross was made between a plant that has blue flowers and purple seeds to a plant with white flowers and green seeds. This is a parental cross and the parents are homozygous for both characters (color of the flower and color of the seeds). The resulting offspring (the F1 generation) is allowed to self-fertilize. Complete a Punnett square representing the F2 generation that results from the above self-fertilization. The traits blue flowers (B) and purple seeds (P) are dominant...

Flower color in pea plants exhibits complete dominance as the purple allele is completely dominant over the white alleles. A) Out of 276 pea plants, 273 have purple flowers. Assuming the population is in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, calculate the Expected allele frequencies. B) A group of students counts 552 pea plants. Based on the expected allele frequencies, how many should have purple flowers and how many should have white flowers?
